Cleaning And Maintenance; Filter Disassembly - Fakir HYGIEN 2600 H2O Instruction Manual

ATTENTION! Do not operate the appliance for too
long without replacing the water in the container.
In case of long-term or very intensive vacuuming
of large amounts of dirt, the water in the tank
which constitutes the first filtration level may in
whole or in a considerable part be absorbed by
the dirt. In such a case, exchange the water and
continue vacuuming.
Avoid vacuuming surfaces covered with substances
which may favor an excessive foaming of the water
inside the tank. If you notice that the water is heavily
foamed, add a foam neutralizer recommended by the
manufacturer of the appliance e.g. "FAKIR Foam Stop"
in the amount indicated on the packaging. It can be
purchased in stores which offer FAKIR products or by
mail order.
ATTENTION! Vacuuming with the amount of
water in the tank which exceeds the marked,
permissible level may cause the water to spill to
the outside of the appliance. If this situation
repeats often, it may lead to a fast clogging of the
outlet H.E.P.A. filter.
ATTENTION! The vacuum cleaner is equipped with
a fl oat which will automatically block the suction
if the foam fi lter II (9) is heavily dirty or the liquid
exceeds the maximum level. In such a case switch
off the vacuum cleaner by pressing the on/off
button (1), unplug the appliance, clean the fi lter
and empty the container.
PICKING UP WATER
If you want to use the vacuum cleaner to vacuum
liquid, the vacuum cleaner should be prepared as in the
case of vacuum cleaning with the use of the water fi
lter module except that:
1. The container should be empty (without water).
2. You should use the nozzle for picking up water (21).
ATTENTION! Do not operate the vacuum cleaner
with a full container! Do not vacuum large
amounts of liquid at a time (e.g. with the hose
immersed into water).
If the water exceeds the maximum level during
vacuuming, the float will automatically block the
suction. The maximum capacity of the container is
about 4,0 l. In such a case proceed in the manner
described above in the part concerning the blocking of
suction caused by a dirty foam filter.
You can use the appliance as dust bagged vacuum
cleaner as optional. You can provide the needful
dust bag container and the dust bags from Fakir
Services.
End of operation cleaning and maintenance
•
Switch off the vacuum cleaner by pressing the
on/off button (1) and unplug the appliance.
•
Wind the cord by pressing the cord rewind
button(4). While doing this hold the cord to make
sure it is not tangled and the plug does not hit the
vacuum cleaner housing.
•
Press the interlock on the hose end and remove the
hose from the opening.
•
Disconnect the telescopic tube from the hose and
the nozzle or brush.
•
In case of vacuuming or picking up water with the
use of the water fi lter module, remove the dirty
water from the tank.
•
It is recommended to wash the container, filters
(disassembly below) and partition thoroughly after
each use – changing water several times.
ATTENTION! If you do not clean the
above-mentioned parts or clean them
insufficiently it may lead to the loss of the
filtration capabilities of the inserts and foam and
cause the formation of bacteria and mites.
Dry all the cleaned parts thoroughly before
reassembly.
